'It's funny when people talk only about South industries being rooted': Vishnu Manchu says Bollywood films are also rooted, takes 'Stree 2' and Chaaava as examples
Actor Vishnu Manchu has recently addressed the ongoing discussion about South Indian films staying rooted in culture and values, while Hindi films are often criticised for lacking such realism. Vishnu called for a more inclusive perspective that acknowledges the strength of all film industries, including Bollywood. In a recent conversation with India Today, Manchu addressed the growing perception that only South Indian films remain true to their cultural roots. Vishnu Manchu says Hindi films are also deeply rooted "It's very funny when people talk only about the four South industries being rooted. Malayalam has always been rooted — they've been far ahead in storytelling. Tamil cinema too has very native, rooted subjects. Telugu and Kannada industries have that as well, but they tend to be more glamorous in their presentation," he said. Manchu cautioned against diminishing the efforts and achievements of Hindi films in this space. He remarked, "People forget that even Hindi cinema has delivered some deeply rooted films that have done phenomenally well. One of the films is Stree 2, and then Chhaava, which have done phenomenally well," he stated. The 'Mosagallu' actor further mentioned 'PK', 'Dangal', and 'Munnabhai MBBS' as incredible Bollywood films that are deeply rooted in culture. Vishnu Manchu On 'Kannappa': Prabhas, Mohanlal & Akshay Join Forces | South vs North Debate 'Stale'? Criticism from media He also took a moment to critique the recurring narrative that Bollywood is in decline, stating that this view often overshadows the industry's successes. In his opinion, the Hindi media has been harsh towards Bollywood and emphasised that the industry is not performing as poorly as people claim. He admitted that there is a dull phase, but people forget to celebrate the glorious releases and instead constantly harp on what didn't work. Manchu further explained that the nature of the film business is unpredictable across regions and not just limited to one industry. He highlighted that all film industries — including Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi — face similar challenges, with only 15–20% of films succeeding globally. The combined success of South films may appear larger, but each industry struggles individually.

Kannappa actor Vishnu Manchu: Hindi films are rooted too, not just South cinema
Amid the ongoing debate around rooted storytelling in Indian cinema, actor-producer Vishnu Manchu has offered a balanced take, arguing that while South Indian industries deserve praise, Hindi cinema's contributions shouldn't be an exclusive conversation with India Today, the 'Kannappa' star said, 'You know, it's very funny when people talk only about the four South industries being rooted. Malayalam has always been rooted — they've been far ahead in storytelling. Tamil cinema too has very native, rooted subjects. Telugu and Kannada industries have that as well, but they tend to be more glamorous in their presentation.'advertisementHe acknowledged the recent buzz around South Indian films, especially in terms of storytelling authenticity, but warned against reducing the impact of Hindi films that have done equally well in that space. Manchu said, 'People forget that even Hindi cinema has delivered some deeply rooted films that have done phenomenally well. One of the films is 'Stree 2', and then 'Chhaava', which have done phenomenally well. And if you look back, 'PK', 'Dangal', 'Munnabhai MBBS' — those are incredible films, and they're as rooted as they come,' he also criticised the tendency to repeatedly highlight Bollywood's failures while ignoring its success stories. 'I think the Hindi media has been a little too harsh on its own industry. It's not performing as badly as people claim. Yes, we're going through a dull period, but we should celebrate the successes and the great movies we've made instead of constantly harping on what didn't work," he Manchu pointed out that no film industry is immune to failure. 'The success ratio in entertainment, across the globe, is 15–20%. Telugu is no different, Tamil is no different, and Hindi is no different. Just because 20% of Telugu films are working, and you're also seeing the top 20% of Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada — together, that success looks huge. But if you look at each industry in isolation, we're all facing the same challenges.'Vishnu Manchu is currently busy promoting his upcoming 'Kannappa', which will hit cinemas on June 27.
